Operation

Pedestal movement

The wheels on the studio version of the skid can be locked in the
straight-ahead position or set to castor freely. The castor/lock
changeover is effected by spring-loaded track lock pins on each
wheel assembly. The pins on the folding legs have red knobs and the
pin on the fixed leg has a grey knob. To engage or disengage a pin,
pull it up against the spring and turn through 90°.
The pin will only engage with the wheel when the wheel is properly
aligned. This arrangement provides castor, track and steer motion.
WARNING! To ensure maximum stability, particularly
!
when moving over uneven ground, reduce pedestal
height to a minimum.
